White claw is a drink that comes in vaguely energy-drink looking cans, tastes bad (if it has any flavor at all), and has a slight alcohol content.
In fairness, my opinion of flavor should be taken with a grain of salt (lol) because I really dislike the taste of alcohol and am honestly surprised anyone could drink even a low percentage without recognizing ethanol’s horrible flavor.
Huh, you may be surprised to hear, but I actually LIKE the taste of ethanol in many drinks.
Ethanol is also grest for extracting flavours from various fruits and herbs.
Another thing that is relevant to my opinions on this topic: I don’t get drunk.
My watch confirms that my heart rate and breathing are affected, but apart from the burn going down (and a headache if I drink more than a few shots), I feel no other effects. So unlike most people I don’t have the same source of positive associations with the taste.
That being said, from a strictly flavor perspective, Jin isn’t horrible. Juniper is one of the few flavors that doesn’t clash with ethanol as much as others. Grapefruit also fits with the taste of alcohol pretty well, but apart from those… I think I’d rather a capri sun than a cocktail lol
5% ABV, might be slight in Poland
I think part of that might be genetic, similar to how cilantro tastes like soap to some people.
